Speak Igbo at Home: An Interactive Learn & Play

Join Cheta Igbo x Igbolingo x Mmuta Di Uto for a joyful, hands-on family event that shows you how to weave Igbo language and culture into everyday life, right at home. Parents will learn simple, modern strategies for raising bilingual kids using tools from both organizations, while children enjoy interactive sessions with Igbo songs, folktales, call-and-response, and mini-games. We’ll wrap with a raffle for an Igbo Starter Kit (Igbo toys, music, flashcards, storybooks, activity sheets, and home prompts) to kick-start your family’s Igbo journey.

What to Expect:

• Meet the Founders
• Practical tips for busy families (5-minute daily routines, screen-time swaps)
• Demos of kid-friendly tools from Cheta Igbo x Igbolingo x Mmuta Di Uto
• Live sing-along: “Egwu Ncheta Ọmụmụ,” “Egwu Akùkụ Ahụ,” and more
• Story circle: Classic folktales, moral lessons, social-emotional skill building
• Igbo games, activities, and of course prizes
• Take-home mini guide + resource list
• Raffle: Win an Igbo Starter Kit for your home

Who it’s for: Parents, caregivers, educators, and children.

Why this matters: Languages thrive in homes that sing, read, play, and celebrate in that language. In this uplifting family workshop, Cheta Igbo, Igbolingo, and Mmuta Di Uto team up to help you make Igbo learning simple and fun, no matter your schedule or fluency level.

You’ll leave with:

1. An actionable family plan
